July 25, 2023,Hengelhoef-Ten Haagdoorn, Startplaats Parking Donderslagweg, oranje route

On this route, you literally walk through the Ten Haagdoornheide heathland. With a bit of luck, you might even encounter a flock of sheep. This walking route is at its best in August/September, when the heather is in bloom.

Starting points:
* Donderslagweg parking lot, Donderslagweg z/n, 3530 Houthalen-Helchteren
* Hengelhoef, Hengelhoefdreef 1, 3530 Houthalen-Helchteren (approach route 900m)
